Charlie-27

In Marvel's Earth-691 31st-century chronology Charlie-27 is a resident of Jupiter descended from human colonists genetically engineered to resist Jupiter's gravity. In the year 3007 he returns from a six-month space mission to find his city taken over by the Badoon; he escapes (teleported) to Pluto, later meets other survivors (including Martinex, Yondu, and Vance Astro) and helps found the original Guardians of the Galaxy. The character first appeared in Marvel Super-Heroes #18 (Jan. 1969).

Described in sources as a descendant of humans engineered for Jupiter's gravity, Charlie-27 is specified to possess eleven times the muscle mass of a normal human. Sources do not provide detailed canonical prose descriptions of facial features, costume specifics, or exact height; the cited material emphasizes his heavily muscled physiology tied to Jupiter adaptation. He was portrayed on film by actor Ving Rhames in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017).

Sources describe Charlie-27 as possessing superhuman strength, enhanced durability, and enhanced stamina resulting from genetic engineering for Jupiter's gravity (explicitly noted as having eleven times normal human muscle mass). He is trained in hand-to-hand combat as a militiaman and is capable of piloting most air and spacecraft of the 31st century, including named vessels associated with the Guardians such as the Freedom's Lady, Captain America I, and Captain America II. He has served as a captain in the United Lands of Earth Space Militia and functions narratively as a freedom fighter and team member of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
